the complaint is GONE very slow ...
norton was already installed - and before it "gone very slow" - presumably it "gone quite fast"
I agree that norton got a bad rep but it was norton 2006 that was the culprit that started this brainless trend to "just remove it"- like all modern protection the package requires a reasonable spec to run - but provides all types of protection in one package
the reason it's difficult to uninstall - is that if it was easy - it wouldn't stand up against attacks
so why recommend removing something which gives far superior protection for an inferior freebie which only runs faster because it fails to monitor 70% of the services ?

Symantec deserves praise for trying to address criticism, and the overall degree of protection offered by Norton Internet Security 2008 is better than many other packages we've seen. At �35 for three PCs, it's one of the better-value options, too. Next to Kaspersky, however, it still looks like a work in progress
Still, Norton AntiVirus is a polished program that provides protection in the most important areas. It is easy to use and, despite costing �10 more than McAfee VirusScan, has advanced slightly further since the previous version
if it is to be removed - kaspersky would be (IS) the choice I went for
